I Took On Remco Evenepoel In A Time Trial. This Is What Happened
Cycling
Dan Lloyd heads to Abu Dhabi to take on the 12.1km UAE Tour individual time trial course at Al Hudayriyat Island. Armed with a Canyon Speedmax and a suite of aero tech, Dan’s mission is simple: finish within the UCI-mandated 30% time cut of the professional winner. Watch as he battles the heat and wind, experiences the humbling moment of being overtaken by World Champion Remco Evenepoel, and finds out exactly how large the gap is between a dedicated enthusiast and the world's elite.
